The World Mobile Congress Summary

The World Mobile Congress in Barcelona has come and gone once again and in it's wake we are left with new mobile phone innovations and future visions of telecommunication. It is hard to say if the mobile phone market has matured when mobile phone manufacturers keep coming up with new ideas and features with mobile phones.

The major theme that did interest me most of course was the announcements of new mobile phone devices. One can not help to notice where mobile phone manufacturers are focusing a part of their R&D when it comes to new mobile devices. That is the amount of memory available on mobile phones. Nokia announced the release of their new phone the N 96. The most impressive aspect of the new N96 is the 16GB memory the phone has. 16GB is a staggering amount of memory even on a computer but on a mobile phone is mind boggling. Other mobile phone manufacturers are following suite in producing mobile phones with larger memory capacities. The amount of data that will be stored on mobile phones is clearly increasing and with that much data present, securing the data to ensure that all that data will not be lost is essential.

This is of course is where SC BackUp comes into the picture. SC BackUp is a backup tool that allows mobile users to backup their precious mobile phone data. Currently the backup of mobile phone contacts, sms and calendar is possible but in the near future the next SC BackUp versions will allow mobile users to backup much more e.g. pictures etc.

The direction mobile technology is heading it is clear that Softconnection is in the right business. Mobile backup will some day become as important and common as backing up PC's. The future of mobile phone technology is exciting!
